Episode 23: Doors of Hope with Terri Caldwell and Rebecca Meyer

It was a pleasure to sit down with Terri Caldwell and Rebecca Meyer and hear more about Doors of Hope, one of our ministry partners. Doors of Hope is part of City on a Hill Ministries in Zeeland, Michigan. They seek to work alongside people in whatever struggles they are experiencing in life, whether that's domestic violence, divorce, recovery or financial problems stemming from generational poverty. They aim to speak truth into the shame that comes along with these things and remind people of their God-given worth and value as they coach them through building a new foundation of practical life skills.

Episode 21: Being Obedient to God with David Rendon

This past week, Tyler and Pastor Toby sat down with one of Pastor Toby's friends, David Rendon. Ever since he was a little boy in Texas, David wanted to be a trucker. Years later, David moved to Michigan and got his own truck. As he made frequent trips between West Michigan and the Chicagoland area, David recognized that his job provided some unique opportunities to show God's love to people. We also hear about David's process of coming to Christ and the importance of obedience.

Episode 20: Knowing the Holy Spirit with Pastor Jose Duran

Episode 19: Neighborhood Bible Study with Mary Rynsburger

This week, Tyler sat down to talk with Providence member Mary Rynsburger. Over the past several years, Mary and her family have been hosting Bible studies for neighborhood kids in their backyard. The structure of these Bible studies has evolved over the years, and last year during COVID it became a key time for the kids to connect with each other, play some games, and learn about God. Their neighborhood has kids that come from a variety of faith backgrounds, so they have had some unique opportunities to introduce people to the gospel. Mary talks about what this experience has been like for both her and her husband Case, as well as their kids.
